Within the neu_ART project, funded by Regione Piemonte (Italy), a team of specialists in different scientific fields coming from Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare (INFN), Physics Department of University of Torino and Centro Conservazione e Restauro (CCR) "La Venaria Reale" has developed a new digital X-ray apparatus expressly designed for painted canvas and panels up to about 3 m × 4 m. Compared to all other systems scanning time is faster, the procedure to obtain the whole radiography is easier and images are available in real time. This apparatus has been widely tested on artworks restored at CCR "La Venaria Reale", allowing to study and optimize the operating parameters and to evaluate its performance, thanks to the feedback provided by professionals involved in the activities of conservation. Supported by the results presented in this work, restorers had the possibility to investigate the materials characteristics and to plan the operating strategy in advance: indeed, radiographs revealed areas with losses of paint, repainted areas, canvas damages, hidden pictures, writings and previous restorations. The X-Ray system for Digital Radiography is integrated in a more complex apparatus that can be used also for computed tomography of voluminous objects up to 2.5 m in height and 2 m in width, making the apparatus developed in the neu_ART project a unique and comprehensive tool at conservators' disposal.
